StarSpiral
Here's another spiral for my SpiralHeart peeps. I drew this in St. Louis in 1980. It was my first finished work that used the spiral/radial mandala which only this year I found out resembles Hunab Ku.
On the back I wrote a verse from the Chaldean Oracles, an ancient Greek book of magic, of Middle Eastern background, that I'd been reading at the time. I think I drew the picture first and then found a verse that seemed to go with it.
24. And thence a Fiery Whirlwind drawing down the brilliance of the flashing flame, penetrating the abysses of the Universe; for from thence downwards do all extend their wondrous rays.
- Proclus in Theologiam Platonis, 171 and 172. T.
